Agriculture and Rural Development Project

This buyer is a part of World Bank.
Agriculture and Rural Development Project operates in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
The Project Development Objective is to assist BiH to strengthen the capacity of its State-level and Entity-level institutions to deliver more efficient and effective agricultural services and support programs as well as to make a substantial contribution to an acceleration of BiH’s eligibility to access support under the European Union Instrument for Pre-Accession Assistance for Rural Development (IPARD).
The Project will be financed by a Specific Investment Loan (Credit) of US$21 million and will disburse over a period of 4.5 years.

Project components:

Component A: Agricultural Information and Institutional Capacity Building
This component will support the Entity-level Ministries of Agriculture as well as the various State-level agencies serving both Entities to fulfill their respective mandates as planning and policy making institutions. A key objective is the harmonization of the various activities and functions at the level of both Entities to facilitate the consolidation of State-level systems as and when such opportunity arises. This Component will provide assistance through the following four sub-components: Improving agriculture and rural sector information systems, Strengthening state veterinary, food safety and phytosanitary services, Strengthening inspectorate capacity, Strengthening agricultural extension services.

Component B: Enhanced Agriculture and Rural Development Support Program
At present, most of the assistance concerns market support measures linked to specific agricultural products, with milk and tobacco payments absorbing a large share of total subsidies. The impacts of the agriculture support programs are undermined by weak systems for the targeting and administrating of incentives and grants. This Component will provide assistance to address these constraints through the following three sub-components: Strengthening rural development program planning and coordination, Strengthening the systems for providing rural development payments, Increasing investment grants for target objectives and areas.

Component C: Project Coordination, Administration and Monitoring
This component will build capacity of the ministries in line to coordinate, administrate, monitor and evaluate the Project through the establishment of the Project Coordination Units.
